The Nurburgring was the venue for the first sighting of the new Aston Martin V12 Vantage S in action.

Packing the latest iteration of Aston’s 6.0-liter V12 with 565 horsepower on tap, the recently unveiled Aston Martin V12 Vantage S is significantly more powerful than the outgoing model. In fact the British carmaker insists it is the most extreme road-going production car it has ever made. With a top speed of 205 mph and 0-62 mph time of 3.9 seconds it also lays claim to being Aston’s fastest accelerating and fastest outright model in the Gaydon stables. So having seen the car in still shots we were waiting for a first sighting of the supercar in action. And here it is.

Thanks to fastsportscardriver, we have a quick video of the V12 Vantage S testing at the Nordschleife section of the Nurburgring. Prepare yourself for some aural pleasure.
